The Phoenix Suns have yet to see their full lineup healthy this season. Both starters, guard Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks, have been sidelined for several games.
"It's continuing to evaluate them day-by-day. We haven't had a ton of 5-on-5 because of our schedule. Yesterday, the day in between, more just film and walk through. They've been able to partake in all of that," said Suns coach Jordan Ott.
Both players joined Phoenix as part of the Kevin Durant trade with the Houston Rockets.
Green was ruled out before the regular season began and was scheduled for re-evaluation after ten days, but there is still no clear timeline for his Suns debut.
"You can see him in games, how engaged he is and how much he wants to be out there. It's the same in practice," Ott commented. "He's been great the entire time. So he's getting it in here and there and that's really helped him as he's progressed here."
His ongoing practice involvement is expected to help accelerate his readiness once he starts playing live.
